Just go there and try the donuts yourself. It will be the best decision you've made all week, I guarantee it! There's nothing to sell here.They make amazing donuts with love. Is straight up fresh every day , not frozen vegan option and gluten free! Just get there early because they do run out of donuts sometimes.😀

I love this place. Hand made pizza, made to order, in a classic Italian, corner pizza shop atmosphere. The owners are lovely and hospitable, and they even gluten free options that are to die for. I can't recommend this hidden gem enough

Jenny Bryant

Our waitress Heather was wonderful! Very friendly and helpful. Everyone on the staff was. The food was delicious and I love the gluten free options!!

Lisa Beshay

This was the BEST meal I have had out in as long as I can remember. My partner is a chef and he and I have a hard time finding places to eat where we feel like it’s worth our time an money. This place is absolutely worth it! I had a smile on my face with every single bite I took. It was seriously so amazing. They off we amazing gluten free and vegetarian/vegan options, as well. Their gluten free pita was delicious and everything was perfectly seasoned, cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Our server, Vedat was charismatic, kind, knowledgeable and just wonderful. We will be back again and again, and soon! I have already recommended this place to friends and family, and you should too!

First time here. Reasonably priced and multiple options, including gluten-free and cauliflower crust. Friendly staff. Warehouse type atmosphere with a lot of seating. The only complaint I overheard was that the ice machine was not working, and the soda was not that cold without it. Would definitely go back. Got a gluten-free pepperoni pizza, and I liked it!

Spencer Nush

We love Savoy Taproom!! We always make a point to stop in for dinner whenever we're in the neighborhood. This is a fantastic gem for gluten free/dietary restriction folks, as there is a dedicated gluten free fryer AND most breaded/fried items are breaded in non-gluten containing batters! This is one of the only places I can get a fried chicken sandwich, fries, fried cheese curds, etc. since I've gone gluten free. Further, the craft cocktails are exquisite, the staff knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind, and the ambience great for evening/weekend dining. I can't think of a more perfect place to celebrate date night, get togethers with close friends, or any special occasions.

Love having a place that’s safe and yummy having dairy and gluten allergies! Their cold foam is amazing and love their house made flavors for lattes. Have been going to this owner since they were in glens falls and send tons of people their way. Great customer service! You won’t be disappointed!

Olivia Pang

Delicious authentic gluten free and vegan! Had an amazing meal trying injera for the first time and I'm already looking forward to next time

My wife, girlfriend and I visited Toro of Albany last night and the experience left us all dissatisfied. The blue corn tortillas used for the gluten free application of the chicken tacos were meely and unappetizing. The 32$ enchiladas with shrimp were 90% tortilla. Each only had 1 shrimp and very little filling. For the price tag, we expected a fantastic meal and it was not delivered. The margaritas were ok but at 15$ a piece, seemed over priced. The only bright spot was our bar tender, rob I believe. He was smart, funny, knowledgeable and overall the best part of the experience. Overall I would say visit this spot for drinks and conversation only.

Amanda Poulin

Favorite restaurant! Many gluten free options! All marked on the menu to make it easy to find. Carribean Nachos are our favorite!!

Andrea Roberts

Food was great. Portions large. Prices were reasonable. Service was wonderful. Very patient with our large group. Gluten free and vegetarian options clearly labeled.

Stephanie Armon

I would say gluten friendly, not gluten free. I have celiac disease and we have eaten here twice. First experience was good! Today’s visit was unfortunate. I spoke to the staff about my food allergy, they seemed confident, and my food came out with the little allergen stick which made me feel extremely comfortable. Within minutes of eating (my delicious food) I was sick and in their bathroom for 44 minutes until I was good enough to make it home and be ill at home. I spoke to a staff member on my way out so they were aware and they were extremely kind about the situation. If you choose to be gluten free or have no food allergies, great place and delicious food! Otherwise, be aware they are not able to accommodate allergies fully. Unfortunately, my family will not be back due to me getting glutened and being ill.

A friend had Mission BBQ cater our party today. When we picked up the food and brought it home, we had noticed a missing item. We called them up to let them know and they were so nice and accomidating. They asked how long it would take us to return to the restaurant and had it prepped in about 10-15 min. They even provided a dessert tray and a $25 off card for the inconvenience which was truly unnecessary. This place and their staff are just absolutely lovely, so welcoming, and great with allergens! We are a big group of celiacs and had plenty of food options. I hope they get more established and stay for years to come.

Rich Parker

The bartender, Zoe, was very nice. I have Celiac Disease, and she let me know all my options on the menu. I didn't have time for a long sit-down meal, but I definitely will be back.

Christine Blackman

My husband and I went for pizza tonight for our 1st time. The menu is at least 4 pages long and they have every food item you can think of—pizza-regular and gluten free, gourmet salads, strombolis, calzones, burgers, subs, gyros, quesadillas, wraps, Italian entrees, wings, shawarma, and DESSERTS. (The carrot cake is to die for.) You can eat in or order take out. There are some booths and tables and a fireplace that adds to the ambiance of the place. We each ordered 2 slices out of a choice of 10-12 different kinds, diet sodas and carrot cake. I took out my charge card. The order total was approximately $25 with tax. Of course I’m guessing because we didn’t pay for it! When I went to put in my card, the gentleman said “No charge. Compliments of the house!” I said, “C’mon, please tell me how much.” Wow, such a generous gesture. We appreciated that so much and we left a nice tip. All 4 staff were welcoming, polite and were a pleasure to deal with. We definitely will go back there again and again. Christine & Rich Blackman

Olivia Pang

Classic smoothie bar and health food style spot but all vegan and gluten free so their whole menu can be enjoyed by everyone! Their salads are so delicious I loved the fresh and bright flavors of the Thai salad, while the salads are very well priced, their juice is tasty but surprisingly expensive compared to their much larger smoothies so I'd definitely go for those next time

Amanda Stan

I stopped in looking for a gluten free treat and left with 6 cupcakes! I have been coming to the shop since it opened and the quality of products, amazing staff and the cleanliness of the shop are top notch! Couldn’t recommend this place more!!!

John Mueller

Great atmosphere and delicious food. The Delmonico's steak is a meal that can't be beat especially paired with the antipasto for two. Gluten free options, including GF pasta, are available. The bar area has a nice vibe. Staff are professional, helpful and friendly.

Michelle Vara

Excellent food and service- Gluten free - vegan choices were top-notch and I didn't get sick so that's a plus!!!!

Isabella Marchese

The gluten-free options are plentiful and delicious! Also the server Drea is probably one of the best serves I’ve ever had. Know the menu front and back and provided impecable service! I knew I wouldn’t get glutened if she served me and I was right!!!

Anon Ymous

The food was delicious and plentiful. The wait time wasn't too long. The waitress was great. My only gripe is they should just have a separated menu section for the gluten-free items.

Damon Brinson

Gluten-free vegan dishes that will amaze. Really great. Fun environment, and very helpful and friendly staff. Thanks!

Samara Halpern

Really happy I did not read the reviews ahead of time. This place was great. I was blown away by the amount of options that are gluten free. I had to try the gluten free mac and cheese and wow it did not disappoint. Also tried the tofu and quinoa bowl, the carrot chili vinagrette was so good! The service was top notch, and they even threw in a lemonade, I tried the habiscus lemonade which was not too sweet, just perfect. Highly recommend.

Brandice Roberts

Good poke. Gluten free soy sauce ( but no other GF sauces). Only one employee, so a bit slow.

D and J Cetnar

My husband and I so love Swiftys. We enjoy eating there every time we travel to Delmar. I love that they have gluten free bread and rolls. Salads and sandwiches are large and delicious. Their house made French fries are so addicting!

That Gluten Free Mom Life

Rosanna’s on Dove Street in Albany is hands down one of the best Italian restaurants in the area. For starters the restaurant absolutely beautiful and has so much incredible history. The building has been a landmark in Albany for over 175 years! We went on a Tuesday and the restaurant was packed— so if that’s not a testament to how great everything is, I don’t know what else could be. The chef, understanding dietary restrictions, which I have celiac disease, and ensures everyone is accommodated. The staff is knowledgeable and so kind, and their gluten-free menu is the most extensive in the capital region, which is inspired by New York City’s culinary scene. This is what we had: Drinks: I had a Cosmo Mocktail and my husband a ‘Paper Plane’ bourbon cocktail Appetizers: LC Shrimp Balls, Fried Artichoke Hearts, and Gluten-Free Grilled Focaccia with pesto dipping sauce Dinner: Bolognese, Lemon Chicken Breast with Risotto, and Grilled Sausage and Polenta Dessert: Pistachio Pudding with an almond cookie, and crushed pistachios Everything we had was Gluten Free and safely prepared in a dedicated gluten-free area. 🤗 Rosanna’s easily gets a 10/10 in our book. We can't wait to go back for more!

Celine M

The establishment is spacious, catering to sizable gatherings and familial units. A delectable cheeseburger with accompanying French fries is offered. The establishment can provide gluten-free buns for both burgers and pasta dishes.

Gina DeMarsico

Most amazing gluten free pizza I've had in 20 years!!! So many gluten free options...the Truffle pizza was delicious!!!

Colleen Dooley

I often hesitate with Italian food because I cannot have Gluten. The up charge is notable but I had a wonderful gluten free experience. The meal was delicious and I did NOT have symptoms of cross contamination. The octopus carpaccio is artful and delicious. The gluten free pasta can be substituted so you just need to check the sauce and protein to make sure it’s gluten free. I can’t wait to go back again.

Eugene Kennedy

Emma L

Gluten free options!

Kim Herzl-Betz

Great for Celiac. Fries are gf fried only with other fries, and if you tell them allergy at the register when you order they notate allergy and you can get a lettuce wrap.

Rich Youmans

We showed up without a reservation and they worked to get us a table for 5 (3 adults, two kids). Our server, Danielle, was great... knowledgeable and kind, and she went out of her way to accommodate a gluten allergy. Food was cooked perfectly and we had a great time. We will be returning!

Donald Csaposs

We had a "miss" not long ago due to some miscommunication about gluten sensitivity (partly our fault). When we brought it to the restaurant's attention, their response was amazing. There were multiple followup communications from management and ownership, with everything focused on not just an apology for what happened, but a clear desire to learn how to improve communications to prevent any reoccurrence for ANY customer. It is wonderful to deal with people who truly care. P.S. The food, beverages, service, and atmosphere are all great, and the pricing is fair for what you get. We'll go back. Heck, we already have!

El Ninja Seven7

My favorite place for pasta! A true ma and pa place! Cozy, intimate, friendly and off the beaten path! Only those that know, know how great it is! And they do gluten free ! Just call early for a reservation!

Ruby Slyer

best Gluten Free cookie I’ve ever had

Naomi Miller

I went at the start of the day. Pleasant staff. I enjoyed how they interacted with each other. Felt very positive. Food was delicious, looked smelled and tasted so good! They have GF baked good, but all their delicious bread had gluten. I ate it anyway. No regrets!! I hot the South of the border sandwich, a massive cherry danish(because why not) that I did share and a homemade whoopie pie(not pictured). Those are my weakness. Say whoopie pie and I'm there!

Daniel Mahoney

Nothing Bundt Cakes: A Bundt-astic Bite of Heaven (Especially for the Gluten-Free Folks!) Recently, I had the pleasure of indulging in their Limited Edition Gluten-Free Lemon Raspberry Bundtlet, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of marvelous. If you're looking for a special treat, a delightful surprise, or simply a way to brighten your day, I highly recommend heading to Nothing Bundt Cakes and grabbing yourself one (or a dozen!) of their Gluten-Free Lemon Raspberry Bundtlets. You won't regret it!

Steven Edmister

I was really hyped about Moliendo Café because I had heard such great things. I don’t wanna complain about everything but overall we were just not very impressed. The owner greeted us off the start and was excellent, but from there the service went down as our waiter was absent quite a bit and forgot more than one of our orders. The food was pretty good. But not what I had expected from the hype. Good atmosphere tho. Overall I had a good experience. The margaritas are Very good tho! I do look forward to returning as maybe it was an “off day” which is understandable. Very traditional food that can be made gluten free and that’s hard to find. All in all I was happy with Moliendo Café.

Christopher Chanowitz

Food is very eclectic and delicious. Service is top notch. We drive over an hour to eat here. Worth it, especially the gluten free options.

Laura Bentz

Love how accommodating they are to GF/celiac diets!

Sam Poyer

Delicious South Indian food made by very nice folks. Lots of options for common dietary considerations (vegan, vegetarian, gluten free). The whole spices and fresh ingredients used in the kitchen lead to incredible flavors, and all the breads are well made. The lunch buffet is awesome. Ask about the student discount!

N Brown

While searching for gluten-free restaurant options in Albany, I saw the Fusion restaurant on Madison…. 4.9 rating on over 100 reviews, and convinced my wife to go. The food was tremendous, and the service was excellent. I had chicken pad Thai and my wife had dumplings and pork fried rice. The food came out very quickly and it was so satisfying. We were exploring the Albany area from Springfield MA and decided to take a chance. I will do it again if I’m in the area and I will try the Colombian section of the menu.

Ken Kittle

Good food Good selection for gluten free Reasonably priced and clean

Julia Patters

I thoroughly enjoyed a gluten free Italian mix from here. I was impressed that I didn’t get glutened, they must take care to not cross contaminate the different items!

Amanda Santos

We were passing through and found this gem! They had gluten free noodles which is really hard to find. Really big portions, delicious food!

Lisa Albright

I am celiac and I have been ordering their food for 3 weeks now. It is a lifesaver not having to go through the stress of cooking every meal now and getting glutened since I live with someone who eats wheat.
